I discovered yoga in high school at my local YMCA. Over nearly 15 years of practicing (with some pauses and rediscoveries), yoga found me again during a particularly challenging season — and this time it became a lifeline. As my practice deepened, I felt drawn to share it with others. I earned my 200-hour yoga teacher certification in 2020 (Yoga & Ayurveda Center), and in 2023 completed a 300-hour advanced training. I also hold certifications in yin yoga, restorative yoga, chair yoga and yoga for mental health.

My approach is built on the belief that yoga is a path to holistic wellness and stress resilience, not just flexibility or strength. In my teaching, I emphasize gentle, inclusive styles — tuned to the needs of students of all ages (including seniors) and especially helpful for those managing chronic conditions, anxiety or life transitions.

"The techniques she has taught me have helped so much with neuropathy. It’s shocking the difference that a few simple yoga moves can make. My pain and tingling is significantly improved over the past few months, thanks to these classes."
